Antonia,
There is a very emotional piece I want to share. It is a short video of a mother who’s son successfully committed suicide.

Good video on how to make sofrito. I wrote a recipe for #SabrosoSaturday for the vegetarian site and had to include how to make sofrito. I don’t buy the store brands because it may have ham or chicken by-product.

God Bless you..;0) It is so funny how when we are IN the moment we feel the most lost, desperate and inconsolable..if we only realize if we WAIT for the next heartbeat, things will go on. Not necessarily improve rapidly, but life moves on, and so should we. I have a sister who is clinically depressed, she has pushed everyone out of her life. We were angry at her at first, but have come to realize this is an illness, just as much as a common cold, and there should be no shame in it, just compassion, understanding, and above all support. Especially in the Latin community Mental Illness and chronic depression are swept under the rug. You are wonderful for sharing such a personal story, if you reach one person you know you haven’t suffered in vain.
